They're £16.99 online! That was what really provoked me into buying one.

Also they've got free delivery for all orders this weekend

I didn't see the price of the micro fibre (microfibre! not 'veloury') ones. The cat licked ones are £30 online.

Yeah I got a putrid lilac slanket for Christmas about two years ago.
I was quite pleased at the prospect but you're right, they're just wrong. There is no way of getting them to sit/lay right on you. All bunched up under your chin but your arms and bottom/back still get draughty. Normal blankets are much nicer, or a poncho
I would quite like a onesie but I can't afford the one I want

Could Santa provide?

Cat licked I don't like the look of that fabric tbh. The micro ones are proper toasty though.

 

[sojourner]

Although hactually...they do look very warm, the cat lick ones

Pre-manked fleece saves you the bother of doing it yourself through use and washing. I wonder if they have a row of cats in the factory or if they have a mechanised method.

We are not really doing pressies this year in my family as everyone is too skint and sick.

Soooo, getting away from the onesie obsession....

I got a brown and gold lurex stripey wool midi-dress from a second-hand shop for £20.

Soz, Ms T, I think I may have inflamed the matter with my facetiousness.
I've just been shopping and I bought a sensible lounging outfit:

 

[Me76]

I'm thinking of getting this from santa at christmas then buying the gidgets various animal ones so we can run round in them together.

I would imagine that with that the tail would get in the way of comfiness.

 

[quimcunx]

I would imagine that with that the tail would get in the way of comfiness.

I'm not really wanting that one for the comfiness.

Also I am, of course, envisaging I will look just as cute and sexy as the photo.... rather than Roly-Poly the dinosaur.

 

[May Kasahara]

I am actually really tempted by a onesie these days having sworn I would never ever go there. But I get so cold, and I love lounging around...there's only three things putting me off: the piss-ripping I would get from Mr K, the effort of having to unzip every time I need a wee (which is often) and the sneaking fear that I would never be able to take it off once I'd experienced its shameful comfort.

 

[clicker]

draughty old victorian houses , that are more gap than house, are no match for a onesie. I feel sorry for the victorians to have shivered in vain.The zip is really no problem....quicker than buttons on levis.

Went to the shops in these earlier

Was on the hunt for a new eyebrow paintbrush yesterday (to draw them in not brush them) could I fine one? No well benefit had one but I wasn't gonna pay £15.50 so I asked the no 7 consultant and she helped me improvise and suggested an eyeliner brush from ecotools....and then I got a retractable lip brush and some new red lippy as it's all 3 for 2 in Boots . Cost me nowt as I paid with my points

 

[Rebelda]

No new threads for me. Got a stack of coats and dresses that need to be dry cleaned, plus a few pairs of shoes/boots that need to be reheeled. Bought some of these though,

because my hair is so determinately straight that normal Kirby grips slide out. Just one is keeping my hair in a twisted top knot right now

 

[Orang Utan]

I think I just bought what could be described as a Xmas jumper

Oooh, genius... May have to try those as my hair falls out of every hairstyle I try

They are genius. Amazon search 'twirl pin' iirc.

Found and bought

Also bought some more babygros because they had cute stuff on the front.

Must. Hide. Credit card.

 

[gentlegreen]

After the M&S socks débâcle (sorting office lied about my place of work being "gone away"). I've relented and decided I probably need different summer and winter socks, so have opted for some rather butch "work socks".

 

[Orang Utan]

reindeers or snowflakes ?

No it's not xmas-themed - just a patterned woolen jumper. Will take a photo in a minute if I can't find it on the net

 

[Greebo]

They are genius. Amazon search 'twirl pin' iirc.

They even stay in my hair - wasn't too impressed at only getting 2 or 3 in the pack, but that really is all you need.

Tasteful but not boring.

 

[Ms T]

They work well on my stupid fine but thick hair. Not sure what I did without them! And if you twirl your hair into a loose bun while damp, you get lovely waves when you take it down.

I got a brown and gold lurex stripey wool midi-dress from a second-hand shop for £20.

I bought it without trying it on, because they said I could bring it back if it didn't fit. It makes me look like a fifties sweater girl! I think this is a good thing on balance.

 

[Ms T]

I also got some wellies for an upcoming trip to the country (specifically told to bring them by our host), and a thick, cable-knit 100% wool grey sweater. TKMaxx FTW!

 

[idumea]

After desperately lusting after a silk bomber jacket (on the Want But Can't Has thread) I found an equally in-all-ways-terrible bomber on ebay for a tenner:




it can go in my collection of fucking awful clothing, growing by the minute. continuing in my quest to look like the eighties were sick on me

I also got this dress on sale:
